Tour Guide

This morning started very early for us. I had my alarm set for 7:30am but as it turned out I didn’t need it. At 6:30am they started a large jack-hammer right beside our bedroom.

The not so funny thing was that they were done and gone by 2:30pm, so they didn’t need to start as early as they did. :(

At 9:00am we met Lori and her husband who were in port for the morning on their cruise vacation. Lori’s husband is not a water lover, so I was taking  them to Lac Bay; Lori to enjoy a snorkel. The shot below shows Lori snorkeling:

While snorkeling we saw a couple of Reef Squid, which is only the second or third time I have seen them.

We also saw the usual fish that you see on a snorkel or dive, but in addition to the usual ones we also saw a Trunk Fish:

And a few Puffers, which was exciting for me as I have only seen one this trip so far. I should point out it that it was Lori’s eagle eyes that found this one.

Near the end of the snorkel we ran into a small Turtle, who let us get pretty close to him.

The hand you see in the next shot is Lori’s

After the snorkel I took them on the quick tour of the Island. We headed back to town around the south end, seeing the salt flats, salt mountain, some flamingos, the slave huts, and a few dive sites. We headed through town and up the coast north so they could see the differences in vegetation between the South and the North. I dropped them off at the Ship just a little past the deadline, but there was still a line up for them to get back on the ship.

The afternoon was spend napping; considering the lack of sleep we got last night.

And in ending, a picture of me working at the computer, correcting the photos of the day. And to appease some individual who has complained about too many fish shots.  :)
